Hello @Pilgrim, Not to beat a dead horse, but you can not white knuckle your way to a successful quit. If you try again, it needs to be a positive thing. Your quit needs to be wanted and loved, cherished above all else; Especially the first year. We do not give babies a cigarette when they are crying...we tend to their needs, figure out the real problem and fix it. It is the same with quitting smoking. Next time, just eat some chocolate

Gday If you have just one you will be right back where you started, and where you started was desperately wishing you were where you are right now. - Marvitta Found this out the hard way… and more than once. You’ve got hop back on … now. You know this as well as me. Just one packet stretches into a week the week a month. And the excuse stretch’s on….. You’re the difference. You know that you can do this. You can do 3 months and you can do forever.

Ohh I am so sorry to hear this @Pilgrim I know life can be hard but cigarettes don't make them better at all. Please don't finish the pack, throw it away and quit again. The more you smoke the more addicted you will get and you have to go through the withdrawal symptoms again! This is my 2nd time quitting and I refuse to go through the withdrawal, it was so horrible. Please quit again! You can do it!! You just have to keep telling yourself that you won't smoke! When you decide to quit again, we will be here for you! I really hope you can do it!!

Is 4 months of smobriety a pattern for you? Just wondering because if it is it will keep being a major milestone hiccup for you until you overcome that time period of struggle. I'm sure you have heard & know all the things I could say & what you are probably already saying to yourself. The best helping hand for each of us is always the one attached to our own arm first. Hopefully you will choose to begin again sooner rather than later (destroy the rest of the pack!). (Read/re-read Nicotine Addiction 101 at whyquit.com. It certainly helped me look at smoking in an entirely different way and was a game changer for me. Smoking doesn't help us through life stresses it just seems that way until we truly understand our addiction to nicotine. You can quit and stay quit.)

Congratulations on your fabulous 5 Months … nearly half a year Well done

Aww Nooo I am sad to read this … You know it’s just the nature of this addiction , that fools you into thinking it helps us through a crappy time The SOS is there for a reason , to help you through the rough time , Smoking doesn’t help you in any way Your seat is still here

Oh No so sorry to hear you caved in and bought a pack, yes 4 months was brilliant. You know already that they won’t help whatever is making your life crappy these days, and that you will want to quit again, if not after this pack, then very soon in the near future. I really hope you choose sooner rather than later. We are here for you .

Hello friends, I don't really know what to say... I gave in to temptation. Life is just really ******* hard right now. I know from past experiences that adding a nicotine addiction on top of everything else is ultimately another burden to deal with, but in the moment it feels like a way to alleviate some stress. I bought a pack today and told myself I'll smoke this pack and when it's finished I'll quit again. I hope I have the strength to do so when the time comes. Four months quit and now I'll have to start over once again.
